I recently visited India and lived in Bombay for over a month, have to say I was expecting much more from this city than I actually experienced. It didnt seem to have changed for the better at all.

1/5; not a city I'd be wandering around alone in that's for sure. If you are planning to visit this city makesure you have a contact there to pick you up at the airport and don't let him/her out of your sight! This is valuable advice!!!

'Bombay' isn't an easy entity to define. For a casual tourist, I guess this is not the best place but for someone ready to mingle with the mess, there's a treasure sitting in there. It is India's New York and Hollywood combined into one, for it is the economic as well as the fashion/movie capital of the country, where the super-rich and poor co-exist in perfect apathy. Beautiful Victorian buildings, palm trees, seaside promenades and drives, bazaars, college crowds and party atmosphere, excellent dining, lively and generally safe at night, with supercrowded yet functional mass transit system (not easy for tourists). Negatives - Dirty, smelly,nasty combination of slums and high rises and crowds that have to be seen to be believed. Your view of Bombay will mostly depend upon the your perspective and areas of the mega-city U see. As for rating, I don't know which aspect of city is expected to be rated here, but I give it an overall 4.

Bombay is the place same as New York which is called city never sleeps.U will find all the teenagers in all modern fashoin clothes and reputed induatrialist of India settled in Bombay.

An open sewer of flithy apathy and degradation.

Please disregard any survey poll or rating about India , most indian lie to show the love for India. As you can see no US city got five star rating and all indian cities got five star rating. Do you think all the Indian cities are better than US cities?
